[01:34] id say... nobody supports linux for shit because it holds next to nothing in the desktop market (compared to M$) [01:34] yes [01:34] cafuego: heh, I figured as much [01:34] syn-ack: 2d :/ heh.. those *Better* be good === SymGeosis [n=SymGeosi@mtairy-motorola1-68-71-230-109.chvlva.adelphia.net] has joined #ubuntu [01:35] Bad_Magic: To make xmms or beep-media-player actually play things, change the audio output plugin to eSound [01:35] Bad_Magic: Can you copy one of the mp3's to /tmp without problems? === bur[n] er [n=burner@c-67-173-243-73.hsd1.co.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [01:35] let me check [01:35] by the way, i need one sec help to finish the updated script for getting ooo2.0 beta 2 [01:35] cafuego, do you know bash shell scripting? [01:35] hmm [01:35] Anybody have any idea how to fix this error in Totem-gstreamer? "no url handler for dvd://" [01:35] could be a codec thing [01:35] BockBilbo: a bit [01:35] m4a = ? [01:36] Dvd's worked before I recently did a clean install on my new laptop. [01:36] Bad_Magic: copy protected mpeg4 audio [01:36] (most olikely) [01:36] !tell SymGeosis about dvd [01:36] NoUse, I know. I already have this. Note the "DVD's worked before" part. [01:36] me too... do you know how to check if the 3rd argument ($3) exists?

[01:41] MaxKyoto - set it to 1 year [01:41] or use NOPASSWD [01:41] I'm new to ubuntu and from Mepis. I'm on breezy 5.10 and can someone explain the deal with the ubuntu vs. Synaptic package managers? I added several "universe" sources so I could find the apps I needed. I did the ubuntu updates (all done) but it said I need to do a smart (dist) upgrade in synaptic. Now in synaptic it wants to remove two libs, add a lot and update alot. SHould I do it?

[01:42] Does anyone know if Ubuntu supports Lexmark printers? I remember having trouble with this a while back. [01:42] does anyone know anything about cacti? [01:42] gurubie: often libs get replaced by new ones, and have to be removed and the new one installed for thinks to upgrade [01:42] bob2: (re-floppy) thanks, I'm sure I'd tried it on my other machine and it got changed back. It works, and survives a reboot so I'm happy with that [01:42] SymGeosis you said you did a clean install, are you sure you got all your DVD related packages reinstalled? [01:43] "sudo will insult users when they enter an incorrect pw" !!

[01:44] dell500: There you go then. [01:44] cafuego, once i find out what chipset, which i think is a Broad Com (BCM) 4318 chipset, but i'm not sure because there are also drivers for the belkin [01:44] lol [01:44] bob2: that must be fun [01:44] timestamp_timeout -- If set to a value less than 0 the users timestamp will never expire.

[01:46] BockBilbo: Again, 'man test' [01:46] So if I'm correct this new 5.1 (Breezy) is in beta "offical" ubuntu. Then is there newer beta stuff? Then is universe basically the debian stuff that might break? [01:46] kbob717: Thats a non supported item.

[01:49] stoeptegel: writing to NTFS is a good first step to an all linux system [01:49] gurubie: breezy is not "beta", it's the development version of ubuntu, updated every 15 minutes or so, and is generally fairly broken. main is supported by canonical for security fixes, etc, universe is not; their quality is fairly even. === intelikey [n=greg@0-1pool90-65.nas23.houston4.tx.us.da.qwest.net] has joined #ubuntu [01:49] nalioth ;-) [01:49] lol [01:49] ^^ [01:49] NoUse, negative.

I just printed directly on a CD using Epson R200 and the Turboprint drivers [01:51] bob2, Thank bob that helps. So this "development" install CD (and HD install) is "generally fairly broken" and similar in trouble as "universe"? Plus neither have security updates? Do they need it? === reiki does a happy dance (tm) [01:52] NoUse, totem-xine is works questionably for me. The only GNOME player that seems to work fine for me is gXine and Xine-UI. [01:52] one step farther away from having to boot back to WinXP... I are happy [01:52] gurubie: no, you're confused, universe is just a section within breezy, like main and contrib in Debian [01:52] SymGeosis what about mplayer? [01:52] gurubie: these are "if you don't know, don't use it" questions, btw [01:53] gurubie: main nominally has security updates for the development branch, unverse does not [01:53] gurubie: Yes, breezy is currently too broken for normal people to use. [01:53] NoUse, the last time I tried mplayer for DVD's on this box it crashed on me.

[01:56] intelikey: rescue cd [01:56] I really impressed with Breezy (updated too.) The thing is, it seems there are things I want in universe. Universe now sounds (and you're saying clearly) lacks security (I'm not doing a sever BTW) ans "don't use it". === treitter [n=treitter@c-24-4-5-82.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [01:56] intelikey, fsck from a rescue/live cd.

[01:58] can someone help me with a video card issue [01:58] intelikey, I didn't even know that the Ubuntu install CDs had the option for LILO... [01:58] Let's see. I wanted to load up TORCS (and they say no good 3D game in open software, huh) but I have several problems. One, DRI. Two TORCS will not install due to an uninstallabe lib.

[01:59] bob2, Well I learn by doing. I'm gurubie for a reason. One part guru. one part Newbie (aren't we all) :) [01:59] gurubie: if you want things to be instalable, use hoary [02:00] I have followed the wiki instructions to the letter and cannot get 3d to load [02:00] Xanthus7: That's not surprising. Don't get your hopes up. ATI Linux Drivers == basically unusable for anything beyond simple 2d [02:00] SymGeosis they install grub and misnumber all the drives makeing it a pain on the first boot. so after i got it booted i did "apt-get remove grub && apt-get install lilo" but i can't get lilo to actually install cause of what ever grub did.... [02:00] They work fine in FC4 [02:00] TylerE, Hey, good to know. Maybe I should drop back to it but I don't like going back. === signbarn [n=signbarn@adsl-219-13-135.asm.bellsouth.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:01] gurubie: or send patches for breezy; it is the development version, things are going to be broken [02:02] I just formatted my NTFS drive to ext3. How do I get GRUB to know Windows no longer exists and to boot directly into Ubuntu? [02:02] SymGeosis I've never used totem, I always use mplayer [02:02] intelikey, this is curious. It misnumbered the drives? I don't mean to be insulting but you're sure about that? [02:02] grub would be great, IF it used real addressing in place of that screwy numbering system that reads bios.... change bios and grub is useless... lilo doesn't have that problem. [02:02] yes SymGeosis i'm sure [02:02] I am of cource aware that I jumped back into ubuntu with the "debelopment" version. I wasn't too impressed with Warty on my hardware then. [02:02] NoUse, before I switched over to linux I always used mplayer. Since I don't want to compile my own recent version of mplayer-mozilla plugin I've stuck with Totem and Xine except for that one time I tried mplayer. [02:02] intelikey: grub sucks less than lilo imo [02:03] intelikey: I've actually always liked FreeBSDs bootloader. NO configuration, it just discovers what you have that's bootable [02:03] TylerE, I agree. === TongMaster [n=TongMast@157.besecure.net.au] has joined #ubuntu === SymGeosis <3's FreeBSD. === TylerE goes too === gusto5 [n=gusto5@216.154.12.128] has joined #ubuntu [02:04] you are free to have that opinion about lilo/grub TylerE, as much as i am free to have the opisite opinion [02:04] hello === TylerE just finds it's (freebsds) hardware support insufficient for what I want this machine to do (Audio, MIDI, Video,. etc) [02:04] does K3B screw up .ICEauthority every time you run it? Or only the FIRST time you run it? Should it be started with gksudo each time I run it? [02:04] lilo is not flexible; at least with grub you can access the FS and load up another kernel. [02:04] bob2, Indeed, I am trying ubuntu again for just that reason. More newer overall choices (than Debian or Mepis so far maybe). So it's nice to here that Hoary (Lord what a name) might fill the bill or maybey Brezzy as it's relesed as "main". [02:04] cafuego: exactly! [02:04] And lilo has MASSIVE ISSUES with scsi+ide systems [02:05] cafuego: Plus you can do fun stuff like boot bootable CD images off a harddrive [02:05] gurubie: no, you're stil confused [02:05] for what i'm using it for. grub is way to complicated. lilo after installed is perfect. (for my use) [02:05] To the point where my scsi+ide server needed to boot a kernel of a damn FLOPPY because lilo couldn't boot it. [02:05] gurubie: you've used apt before? you know what repository sections are? === dell500 [n=dell500@12-216-243-107.client.mchsi.com] has joined #ubuntu [02:06] TylerE, I just got tired of compiling and having to tweak everything. Plus ATI doesn't have drivers for FreeBSD... [02:06] SymGeosis: yea [02:06] SymGeosis: you can use VESA [02:06] erm [02:06] one last question cafuego, im trying to make an OR inside an IF contition... [02:06] bob2, Oh yes. [02:06] whats the way to do it? || doesnt seen to work [02:07] BockBilbo: Bracket it properly [02:07] nalioth, those drivers are rather buggy with this card that takes special ATI drivers that differer from all there others. [02:07] gurubie: breezy is a release, like sid or sarge. main is just a section within each [02:07] SymGeosis: ah, you are running hot stuff, then [02:07] BockBilbo: cmd1 || cmd2 ought to work fine, though === c0rrupt_ [n=joe@pool-141-149-209-76.syr.east.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:07] SymGeosis: if the driver in breezy don't work, please do file a bug === SymGeosis notes that the Radeon X200m isn't well supported in Linux. [02:08] ok [02:08] SymGeosis: I pretty much stay away from ATI stuff these days [02:08] bob2, OK right. I just wanted to refer to the supported version or what ever it's called. [02:08] gurubie: you're still mixing things up [02:08] bob2, I haven't tried Breezy. Besides, the current drivers in the repositories don't have the driver that my laptop requires. It only has the generic one. [02:09] SymGeosis: My last system had a 9600 in it. The thing never really worked well except in windows [02:09] When is brezzy due (out of development)? [02:09] october === Cylla [n=dulcet@64.212.140.5] has joined #ubuntu [02:09] just use "stable" instead of "supported" [02:09] TylerE, the drivers are getting better with each release. Plus the dev team members have been incredibly helpful. [02:09] is it my imagination or does Ubuntu (and maybe linux in general) download faster than a windoze box? I'm redownloading Hoary iso and it sure seems to be going faster. 685KB/sec [02:09] BockBilbo: Don't forget to use double "[[" and "] ] " if you are using multiple conditions such as || and &&, etc. [02:09] I could do a lot to report bugs in the mean time. [02:09] SymGeosis: yes, indeed, but if you told someone with the power to include them in ubuntu, it could work out of the box from october onwards === Orunitia [n=Chaos@69-172-23-123.clvdoh.adelphia.net] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] === idaho45 [n=john@200.84.68.174] has joined #ubuntu [02:10] bob2, I filed a report in Bugzilla some time ago... [02:10] SymGeosis: Seeing as how as of 6 months ago, when I last tried it, the ATI drivers were basically dog turds, I fail to see how the situation could NOT improve. I'm still skeptical. In any case, the NVIDIA drivers are pretty much flawless. [02:10] except for random crashes [02:10] and being binary-only [02:10] etc [02:11] TylerE, if I remember correctly, Nvidia drivers don't use DRI. [02:11] yup [02:11] DRI was put under a binary-driver-compatible license so they could use it [02:11] but no! [02:11] TylerE, plus for dual monitor support they require Xinerama (or however the hell it's spelled) which isn't as efficient as a hardware solution (which ATI uses) [02:11] bob2, Right, stable it is. That's now Hoary. So the question becomes, what will I miss if I fall back to the stable release in order to move forward and install a few select packages from Universe in order to obtain smoth sailing? [02:11] SymGeosis: er no they don't [02:11] ok you guys are scarin me... if I build a new box, do I want to build it with a PCIexpress 256MB nVidia-based card? or something else? [02:12] gurubie: "fall back" = reinstall [02:12] SymGeosis: and the difference is SFA [02:12] SymGeosis: NVidia DOES do DRI, it just doesn't use the X stuff [02:12] reiki: nvidia is the best bet [02:12] SymGeosis: The effect is the same any way [02:12] SymGeosis: In any case the performace is pretty much the same as windows. === titaniumone [n=gunit@blk-222-179-143.eastlink.ca] has joined #ubuntu [02:12] SymGeosis: Because the drivers are the same [02:12] HrdwrBoB: *whew!* :) [02:12] SymGeosis: Except a little bit of glue code [02:13] reiki: it's not entirely optimal, but for the most part, it works [02:14] HrdwrBoB: well by the time I actually get to where I can buy all the parts.. hopefully there will be improvements :) [02:14] what's considered the best bittorrent client for ubuntu? i'm using azureus on Windows XP and i like it but i want to start using bittorrent on my linux box instead. P3 450mhz / 256mb of ram, so i don't have a lot of resources. [02:14] has anyone here installed NWN on ubuntu? [02:14] ok... tossing a coin.... GnomeBaker or K3B to burn iso? They both about equal? one better? [02:14] SymGeosis, Well my nvidia gpu works DRI (in Mepis dare I say) but I'm surprised DRI doesn't work (yet) in Breazy. If I understand you all correctly, my DRI should work with Hoary? [02:14] titaniumone: bittornado [02:14] kb3 has a better splash screen [02:15] reiki: don't bother, nautilus burns iso files just fine [02:15] reiki: righ click, select write to cd [02:15] !ndiswrapper [02:15] well, ndiswrapper is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HowToSetUpNdiswrapper [02:15] bob2: wow.... excellent... thanks [02:16] gurubie, I'd like to be able to give you an answer however I don't have any Nvidia hardware as of now. Though judging from what the others have said, I'd say "yes." [02:16] <-- newbie.. I have kubuntu and I can't for the life of me figure out how to start firefox. I've confirmed that its installed.. === anomaly [n=aa@adsl-0-161-154.mob.bellsouth.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:16] #kubuntu [02:16] or run "mozilla-firefox" from the run program dialog [02:16] bob2:ty [02:18] bob2: hmm, that does not work.. I attempted to ask in #kubuntu first but got no answer... [02:18] gurubie - did you do https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia [02:18] Cylla, you can make a shortcut to you KDE panel from the panel settings. It shouldn't be hard. You'll just have to name it, and add "mozilla-firefox" to the command section [02:18] "does not work"? [02:18] do you have the mozilla-firefox package installed? [02:18] Cylla, try typing moz and then tab. [02:18] Cylla: How did you confirm that it is installed? [02:18] or did you go install the tarball to some random place? [02:18] yes.. [02:18] for some reason, sudo modprobe ndiswrapper gives me an error === _tester_ [n=yz@216.238.203.79] has joined #ubuntu [02:18] dpkg -L |grep mozilla ?

[02:19] treitter welcome then [02:19] I do want to point out the I am extreamly impressed with the manner that this "development" Brezzy set up my TI wireless G card. I don't even know if it used ndiswarpper or another native type module but it just works. That excellent and most important as a first step. Can I expect it to work the same with Hoary? [02:20] sudo insmod ndiswrapper ?? [02:20] nope [02:20] gurubie: maybe. If Breezy currently works, then I'd stick with it. [02:20] don't ever use insmod [02:20] CarlFK, Thanks, i'll check [02:20] No, don't try insmod. [02:20] if you get that error with sudo modprobe, ask on the ndiswrapper mailing list [02:20] insmod is meant to be run by the KERNEL, not you.

[02:55] crimsun: I don't get ANY initrd image currently. [02:55] so you know she is dual booting and for some reason ubuntu used lilo instead of grub [02:55] bob2, i assume there is a way to configure stuff like max connections etc? azureus crashes my router on windows if i don't have a max set for connections [02:55] any suggestions for ways to make her box usable again? [02:55] titaniumone: of course [02:55] Hurga: I understand that [02:56] ax: it's extraorindarily unlikely that "ubuntu used lilo instead of grub"; lilo is not on the install CD [02:56] Hurga: that's why I referred you to some additional gotchas that have plagued people [02:56] bob2, Thanks. So it is indeed as Breezy vs. Hoary lib change then? I was not sure. How can I check the status of this new lib package being updated. (besides asking Torcs dev).

I'm now an official ATI linux beta-tester. [04:21] never mind bimberi [04:21] i just did it rofl [04:21] gusto5: right click on the clock [04:21] I supposedly need to open port 113 to connect to quakenet, so my irc client can talk to ident servers... [04:21] furic: they shouldn't ignore the setting... I've never had that issue... but then, I've rarely used Kubuntu... [04:21] Mostly because I wrote to one of the developers about the problems we were having on this laptop. [04:21] how do I do that? [04:21] furic: maybe look at Kubuntu bugs on the matter? [04:21] lunitik: Some applications have it hard coded, for example chat history themes in kopete === superspecs [n=The@c-65-96-177-218.hsd1.ma.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [04:21] its not a bug [04:22] After getting fglrx working, I get 1200FPS in glxgears, and in counter-strike: source (via cedega) I get about 3 seconds between each frame. [04:22] well, maybe the font rendering is, but its happened on other linux distros === Viziri [n=chatzill@81-179-96-246.dsl.pipex.com] has joined #ubuntu === Azra`el [n=1000@mdfdwihed01-pool0-a391.mdfdwi.tds.net] has joined #ubuntu === Azra`el [n=1000@mdfdwihed01-pool0-a391.mdfdwi.tds.net] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] [04:23] I want to try out SUSE 9.3. I have Ubuntu and XP installed alread. Anyone know a good HOWTO on how to do this? [04:23] I hope you give 'em hell and they get some better drivers out! (the recent ones just lock up my system too :( ) [04:23] so how is hardware support on ubuntu compared to say.. redhat, debian, suse, etc..? [04:23] 23587 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4717.330 FPS [04:23] woot [04:23] Viziri, just partition another part for suse to use [04:23] Viziri, just download Suse's CD's and rip away at it. [04:23] Viziri, if you want to keep your partitions you may want to give gparted a look. [04:24] viziri: suse will detect all your current ubuntu and xp and put them into the bootloader. [04:24] djur, I have a widescreen wireless laptop, and ubuntu is the OS I've chosen, if that helps [04:24] I could do that no problem, but i'm concerned about boot issues [04:24] oneseventeen: Set up the game in Cedega to use hw 3d, not software. [04:24] cool.. I have a wireless laptop on it's way to me... [04:24] cafuego_ how do I do that? [04:24] I was hoping to hear it had support. [04:24] oneseventeen: game prefs [04:24] Viziri, don't be... grub can handle suse and ubuntu... just edit the menu.lst when done to include all OSes [04:25] ej!! I have to choose the path for istalling LILO and the default path is "/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc" but unfortunatelly it doesn't work. Do you suggest something ? [04:25] anyone ever have problems with btdownloadcurses? i cannot get it to connect to peers. :( i have forwarded ports (i think the right ones, im not sure) [04:25] djur: I think most linux distros have support, since you can run most software on all the distros, but ubuntu does seem to be pretty good "out of the box" [04:26] titaniumone, shouldn't even need to forward ports... although forwarding makes things faster === FuzzyGhost [n=brad@66-191-86-79.dhcp.stpt.wi.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu [04:26] titaniumone, you have a gui? i'd suggest azureus [04:27] bur[n] er, no and i don't want one because this is an old slow machine. i have TorrentFlux so i can control it easily (php interface) and torrentflux is working fine but it uses btdownloadcurses, which isn't working :O [04:27] Hi, I was wonder what I'd have to do to configure Ubuntu 5.04 with an Nvidia card. [04:27] "wondering" rather. [04:28] Yeah, I did start the SUSE install just to get a feel for it. I stopped before partitioning. It did autodetect another Linux distro, and gave several options. I was unsure about which option to select [04:28] FuzzyGhost: ubotu loves you [04:28] FuzzyGhost: install 'nvidia-glx' [04:28] "HARD DISK BOOT SECTOR INVALID. PRESS 'H' TO RETRY HARD DISK, ANY OTHER KEY FOR FLOPPY" CAN ANYONE HELP ME ?? [04:29] gonti - that was from a default install? === redir [n=reed@70.88.128.138] has joined #ubuntu [04:29] carlFC - yes [04:29] does ubuntu come with a firewall by default? [04:29] FuzzyGhost: http://www.ubuntuguide.org/ [04:29] oneseventeen - yes - the "no open ports policy" firewall ;) [04:29] candlelight: please dont do that === noddaba [n=abaddon@bgp996006bgs.nanarb01.mi.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [04:30] CarlFK: how would I open a port then? [04:30] !+ubuntuguide [04:30] from memory, ubuntuguide is a set of instructions with no explanation. Please do not advise people to use ubuntuguide. Advise https://wiki.ubuntu.com instead. The official FAQ Guide will be released with Breezy, stay tuned. [04:30] oneseventeen - it depends on what service you want others to access [04:30] cafuego_: you need to drop a line or two into the bot to tell you if it's just sent the same factoid to the same user [04:30] nalioth: ic. [04:31] I want my irc chat to do whatever it needs to do to connect to the "ident server" for quakenet [04:31] oneseventeen: On a normal install, you simply install the service, the port would be closed otherwise. [04:31] oneseventeen: Just install an identd. [04:31] cafuego_: cuz nowadays i msg the bot to send folks factoids [04:31] is it possible to use the install cd as a boot cd? [04:31] nalioth: it's perl [04:31] cafuego: haha... I've been basically stating what that factoid says for like a year now... since the first incarnation of ubuntuguide .... no one listened to me though :( [04:31] noddaba, bot into? [04:31] nalioth; You could do !bot tell victim -about factoid [04:32] nalioth: that way anyone cna see you've done it [04:32] cafuego_: is there anything I should google for specifically to figure out how to install an identd? [04:32] noddaba - kinda. you can Alt-F2 to get to a prompt [04:32] gusto5, to boot into a partition that has Ubuntu installed on it. [04:32] can I configure a tap device in /etc/network/interfaces? [04:32] oneseventeen: 'apt-cache search identd' - pick one, install it. [04:32] cafuego_: tryin to keep the level of crap down in the channel [04:32] noddaba, what is installed on your other partitions? [04:32] nalioth; yeah, but we can't just ban the entire US. [04:32] !bot tell me about stuff #test [04:32] lunitik: Do they come in packets of five? === TylerE [n=tylere@ip68-230-172-112.nc.hr.cox.net] has left #ubuntu [] [04:33] cafuego_: ban? [04:33] rofl [04:33] lol [04:33] nalioth (it woul dkeep the crap down ;-) [04:33] cafuego_: just a line or 2 so ubotu tells you that the factoid was just sent to the user you want it sent to, also === nalioth is lost [04:34] nalioth: Yeah, that would require hashes and timers... in perl... [04:34] vader1102, is allways lost === Paganini [n=paganini@ts-ilwrdn35.madisontelco.com] has joined #ubuntu [04:34] Windows installed on one drive, Ubuntu on another. trying to help out a friend, and basically he blew away grub. I know w/ the debian install cd's, i could also use them as boot cd's too... but apparently not with Ubuntu? [04:34] cafuego_ : is there an identd you would recocomend? [04:34] cafuego: yeah... that last suggestion would be good... or even, only a message telling you if it didn't work... usually, we issue others factoids that we know the content of ;) [04:34] gonti - so the box boots, and no mention of grub? [04:34] nalioth: and it still won't prevent 5 people from doing "/msg ubotu tell...", whereas one line in the channel does [04:34] Noddaba, yeah, Windows is annoying like that. [04:35] The Hoary install disk will boot. [04:35] he's new to Linux, so showing him how to fix it may be over his head, so I was hoping there was something he could do without having to reinstall again === franlopez [i=franlope@200-122-69-153.cab.prima.net.ar] has joined #ubuntu [04:35] until he had more time to learn the right way, that is [04:35] hmm thats a toughy [04:35] he may have to reinstall [04:35] Paganini, I tried doing "Linux boot=/dev/hda1", that didn't work. it panicked [04:35] Paganini, from the install cd, that is === jsubl2 [n=jsubl2@72.48.94.33] has joined #ubuntu [04:36] noddaba, what windows version?

[04:36] Paganini: please dont do that [04:36] anyone know of a super secret (meaning I can't find one) GOOD wysiwyg editor that can handle php? [04:37] !tell Paganini about ubuntuguide [04:37] It worked for me last week. [04:37] noddaba: here ya go https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows0 [04:37] Scuse me nalioth, ubuntuguide is what I personally used last week to fix the exact problem he's asking about. [04:37] And a set of instructions is exactly what he just requested to help his noob friend out. [04:37] Paganini: Yes, it WORKS, but do you know WHY ? [04:38] In fact, yes. [04:38] Milk_: DO NOT write php in a wysiwyg editor. [04:38] Milk_: There are no good wysiwyg editors in Linux. [04:38] Paganini: haha... me used the guide as a quick fix too [04:38] hi there, i'm having a dumb problem... i've installed the ubuntu based system (it was great and worked out all of my hardware) and i used apt to install DeMuDi as is indicated on their website (demudi.agnula.org)... but now i don't know what to do... has anyone done this? or can at least someone tell me where it has been installed and how can i run it? (i'm guessing it's some kind of install software)... (i know it's not exactly an ubu [04:38] thanks guys === fek_ [i=fek@kinderfresser.org] has joined #ubuntu [04:38] milk_ have you seen.. nvu i think it is called? [04:39] CarlFK: Like I said.. ;-) [04:39] yes nvu [04:39] dreamweaver clone [04:39] nvu is a modified mozilla composer [04:39] I don't write the PHP in a wysiwyg [04:39] Paganini: if you are an experienced *nix user, there's nothing wrong with the guide, but if you are new to *nix, it can lead to system failure [04:39] cafuego_ - nvu isn't worth messing with? [04:39] I write the HTML and layout in a wysiwyg, then come back in code it out [04:39] nvu is horrible [04:39] CarlFK: I found it irritating and slow; rather stick to vi. [04:39] talking to myself [04:40] if you name your files .php, it won't open it [04:40] Milk_: try vi? === Paganini [n=paganini@ts-ilwrdn69.madisontelco.com] has joined #ubuntu === hybrid_goth [n=hybrid@dpc6745217221.direcpc.com] has joined #ubuntu [04:40] *sigh* [04:40] Sorry about that. [04:40] candlelight, not really wysiwyg is it? [04:40] CarlFK: cafuego_ and i prefer text mode html editing === cafuego_ forgot what he was about to do [04:40] Paganini: if you are an experienced *nix user, there's nothing wrong with the guide, but if you are new to *nix, it can lead to system failure [04:40] franlopez, .... you got any extra programs ? [04:40] hmmm... I installed pidentd and I still can't connect to quakenet [04:40] Milk_: oh... nope [04:40] I like mamboserver ;) [04:40] Milk_: Learn html, stop relying on wysiwyg, your files will be smaller, consume less bandwidth, work better in search engines, and work correctly in text browsers if you do [04:40] we dont recommend the guide to anyone in here [04:40] nalioth: Oh no, I don't dislike dreamweaver, it's just that nvu is no dreamweaver [04:41] Whats so bad about ubuntuguide? [04:41] wickedpuddy: nope, just the "server" instalation of ubuntu... and the i went right away to download demudi [04:41] cafuego_: i've never used dreamweaver or hotmetalpro or any of that rot [04:41] furic, I've been designing html for 10 years, I can do it all in tags, but I'm also a good layout designer and want to see what it looks like.. so its a preference [04:41] cafuego_: i prefer my thyroidally challenged text editors [04:41] wickedpuddy: nope, just the "server" instalation of ubuntu... and then i went right away to download demudi === fek_ is now known as fek [04:41] nalioth: I've used dreamweaver on and off since version 2. Of course, back when I started with html, I used bbedit lite. [04:42] I'm trying to ween myself off of DW [04:42] franlopez, i don't see any documentations there either ... and i see you are in their chan ... ask if any of them are dev ? [04:42] Milk_: doesn't DW run in crossover office :) [04:42] cafuego_: i started out with a text editor (disguised as a web browser) [04:42] regardless.... Lets answer my question... is there a good Wysiwyg thats native to linux that can handle my php needs as well? [04:42] Nalioth: Just having linux can lead to system failure. Even if you are an experienced *ix user! ;) [04:42] cafuego_: then dumped the browser [04:42] aru, I tried it a year or so ago and it wasn't good [04:42] [04:42] aru: I heard DW MX 2004 won't work in crossover [04:42] Paganini: yes, i agree, but the guide is not too well explained [04:42] Anyway. [04:42] nalioth: yeah, bbedit lite is a text editor [04:43] Milk_, i like kdewebdev [04:43] wickedpuddy: i've posted a similar question, but had no answer... adn ther's no activity going on on that channel... [04:43] Milk_, no idea about wysiwyg ... but for php you can try eclipse [04:43] it techincally "Runs" but not well [04:43] Milk_: I'm about to buy Zend's own Development Environment "Zend Studio" [04:43] cafuego_: yes i know what it is, (it costs money) [04:43] I'm using blue fish for the php.. and I LOVE it [04:43] franlopez, then i guess you could email those guys ?? [04:43] nalioth; My wife swears by it; she would leave OSX if only they'd port bbedit to Linux [04:43] Milk_ other than that, I haven't found a good php editor [04:43] cafuego_: bbedit does do nice things [04:44] cafuego - swears by what? [04:44] jsubl2, what is the menu name for kdewebdev? [04:44] wickedpuddy: i've tryed that... but i'm running out of time... the question is, do i have a way to know where has that package been installed? [04:44] my clients are on crack, this domain is SO not available [04:44] CarlFK: BBEdit [04:44] She even has teh t-shirt [04:44] franlopez, try synaptic ... you can find out installed packages from there [04:44] heh [04:45] wickedpuppy: and how should i do that? [04:45] Milk_, it used to be quanta but got renamed it is part of the kde environment -- sudo apt-cache search kdewebdev [04:45] franlopez, you got no x ? === oceandead [n=oceandea@pcp0010121770pcs.crosky01.pa.comcast.net] has left #ubuntu ["Off] [04:45] synaptic comes default with ubuntu === tube013 [n=byron@dsl092-232-070.phl1.dsl.speakeasy.net] has joined #ubuntu [04:45] dude [04:45] System > Administration > Synaptic [04:45] So, thanks to the Fool's help, my modem driver's now work!

[05:05] CarlFK, ok....thought maybe that may throw another idea your way [05:05] nalioth, or the full path like /home/user/bin/file2run === PenguinOfDoom [i=pahan@choler.xzrq.net] has joined #ubuntu [05:06] #bittorrent gave up on me too. :) [05:06] nalioth: ok, so, you mean i should find the path for tasksel and run it from there?

[05:15] heh I haven't done dialup/pppoe for a long time :) [05:15] can somebody help me..please.. [05:15] so far the best answer is: setup pppconfig and make a shortcut that calls pon [05:15] CarlFK: But why no sudo btw?

[05:16] Buuyo^ - cuz it is for a box that will be used by some kids. they don't get sudo. [05:16] bear in mind that "ac97" is not a modem [05:16] it's a device to play sounds into a phoneline [05:16] CarlFK: Then create a NOPASSWD: sudo line, and create a launcher on the desktop that calls it :) [05:16] your CPU has to be the actual modem [05:16] Buuyo^ - I keep thinking that there is a "happy gui ubuntu way" that I havn't found yet [05:16] so go pay linuxant for drivers === robitaille [n=daniel@d154-5-117-228.bchsia.telus.net] has joined #ubuntu [05:16] doesnt make any difference if i set the flag on linux part or ntfs?

[07:58] bur[n] er: granted... that really ought to be installed by default... but thats ok :P [07:58] matthew_w: in fact, you need to sudo ./script after you chmod it, actually, sorry, forgot that. === adjacent [n=scott@cpe-024-168-216-235.sc.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [07:58] !tell xsquared about ask [07:59] dabaR; that worked fine, thanks XD [07:59] Dr_Willis>it tells me WIN32_FIND_DATA is not yet filled..but it still says the installation is completed === mypapit [n=mypapit@60.50.38.4] has joined #ubuntu [07:59] !ask [07:59] glyn, sounds to me like the installer may be a little brain dead/wine issues. === kspath [n=tweekken@c-24-14-49-225.hsd1.il.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [08:00] lunitik, i found it... i have myspell-en-us installed, but my spellchecking doesn't work... might be cause I use openoffice.org2 [08:00] glyn, try installing somthing else and see what happens.

[08:00] bur[n] er: 'myspell-dictionary' being installed makes the spellchecking work here... [08:00] xsquared, can you boot 'recovery mode' ? [08:00] bur[n] er: and I'm on breezy also... [08:01] lunitik, openoffice.org2? [08:01] bur[n] er: yuh [08:01] odd === bur[n] er double checks [08:02] bur[n] er: 'myspell-dictionary' not 'myspell-en-us' :/ [08:02] matthew_w: its a executable script, so you changed its permissions to be executable, with chmod, and then you ran it, but cause its not in your path, you had to specify where it is, and you had to use sudo to have it be able to install. only root installs. [08:03] matthew_w: the explanation is as important if not more as the command. [08:03] Dr_Willis>I tried installing something else to the seemingly same location, under C_Drive/common files, and that isn't there either [08:03] myspell-dictionary isn't a real package ;) [08:03] it says to pick your language [08:03] where en-us is mine [08:03] oh well... something to tackle another night... it's time for bed [08:03] blah... *goes to see what it installed here* === Tomcat_ [n=Tomcat@p54A18CD2.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu [08:03] thanks lunitik... have a good night :) [08:04] dabaR; thanks again [08:05] ugh.. shouldent you be looking under "program files" ?

I've installed tightvnc but it only shows an X desktop, but I need the KDE one... [08:09] Bags i have the same problem [08:09] i want it to show the gnome one [08:09] Dr_Willis>Perhaps I can mount my Windows drive and solve this problem? [08:09] but it shows X:1 [08:09] Dr_Willis>I have the files on my Windows drive..I just need to know how to mount the c ntfs drive [08:10] Bags, check th3 tightvnc docs and the server script that runs it - you can make a config file that lets you run any window manager. [08:10] !NTFS [08:10] I guess ntfs is the (N)(T) (F)ile(S)ystem, the filesystem normally used under Windows XP. To automatically mount your NTFS partition/s, you can use this utility: http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/winmac_fstab . It handles HFS+, NTFS and FAT32 partitions. [08:10] I had all this shit and my computer just went crazy and I had to install Ubuntu again [08:10] :) [08:11] Bags, the file is often .vnc/xstartup - but i am not sure what the tightbvnc package for ubuntu defaults to. (check the vncserver script to see wht it looks for) [08:11] Dr_Willis>Heh, I went to the link but how do I save it as a file?

[09:11] esd _uses_ ALSA [09:11] you can use ALSA and totally bypass esd if you want.. won't harm anything [09:11] mae, you are right, but you dont NEED esd [09:11] mae: but alsa can do software mixing, so no need for a sound server [09:11] ubuntu-asker, certain apps need esd to be running to provide sound [09:11] mae, name one esd dependant === syn-ack [i=Matt@ip68-228-38-121.tc.ph.cox.net] has joined #ubuntu [09:11] ekimus, this is true, but alot of gnome apps still need esd [09:12] esd is genuinely ugly. i don't know if switching to polypaudio would help a lot, but i'm going to try one of these days [09:12] ok. [09:12] big problems. [09:12] at my workplace. [09:12] ekimus: run debfoster [09:12] using ubuntu as a file server to back up win2000 machines [09:12] topyli: it's unnecessary in breezy. [09:12] mae, gnome is deprecated too... :P just kidding === PurpleMotion [n=jay@cpe-24-26-139-222.columbus.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [09:12] ubuntu-asker, if there are no esd-dependent apps that you use you can very easily turn ESD off with a checkbox in the gnome control panel... [09:12] what dop i need to do to make ubuntu resolve DNses? [09:12] mae: no, you can always tell those applications to use the sound device directly. i don't know a single one that won't work without alsa [09:13] Wilf: It normally does. [09:13] topyli: alsa dmixed is the default, and esd is active as a backup. [09:13] Wilf: How did you set up this network? [09:13] Wilf: add your dns server to /etc/resolv.conf === theD3viL [n=geek@BSN-77-90-27.dsl.siol.net] has joined #ubuntu === gsuveg [n=gsuveg@224-018.adsl.pool.ew.hu] has joined #ubuntu [09:13] Wilf: Does it have a static IP address, or do you get it by DHCP?

See http://www.fruit.eu.org/debfoster/ and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2440 [09:13] Wilf: If you want an IP address to add, not running one yourself, add 128.151.2.1 to /etc/resolv.conf . [09:13] my problem is [09:13] im get "many invalid character in header (rfc 2822)" error form amavis, how can i disable this scan in amavis ? [09:13] that i can ping the ubuntu box from a windows machine [09:13] and it will ping fine [09:14] but it will time out if i just go ping foo [09:14] and also, i cannot connect to the shared folder [09:14] Wilf: Try ping google.com [09:14] Many hosts block pings. === MrGardenHoseMan [n=hose@69.182.229.31] has joined #ubuntu [09:14] Windows may even by default these days. === bluefoxicy [n=bluefox@pcp0012069148pcs.whtmrs01.md.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [09:14] ubuntu and win2000 machines all can access the internet. [09:14] google.com is a known-pingable host. [09:14] ekimus, this is true for alot of apps yes, but some only _know_ how to use esd, not alsa directly, remember alsa is still fairly new.. before esd was used to abstract sound-services into a simpler api in order to ease the programming of sound-enabled apps.. not _all_ apps know how to use ALSA or OSS directly. [09:14] how do you properly remove a usb drive? [09:14] Wilf: "cannot connect to the shared folder" - is that because you need to enter a username/password for it? [09:14] unmount it and just remove it? [09:15] MrGardenHoseMan: yes [09:15] paulproteus|lapt, yes [09:15] but nomatter what i type [09:15] MrGardenHoseMan: Right-click, unmount, then pull it out. [09:15] thanks [09:15] nothing accesses it [09:15] mae: which one? i just had problems _using_ esd. [09:15] ekimus, what problem, with which app? [09:16] mae: mp3blaster no sound with esd because it doesn't know esd uses alsa/oss directly [09:16] i can ping the ubuntu box from a winbox using the ip, but not with the host name, and the ubuntu box can ping everyone. [09:16] ekimus: esddsp mp3blaster, or use alsa directly via its oss emulation (enabled by default in Ubuntu), or wrap it with aoss mp3blaster [09:16] Wilf: So you're saying you want to make DNS name for the Ubuntu box, and you don't know how? [09:16] Wilf: that's because windows uses netbios for name resolution. you can look into the wine docs to achieve pinging by name [09:17] ekimus, so try turning off the sound-server system > preferences > sound > Uncheck "Enable sound server startup" [09:17] ok [09:17] Wilf: Run the samba server on the Ubuntu box, and you should be okay. [09:17] but main thing all i want [09:17] it is running [09:17] Samba, not WINE. ekimus's comment isn't accurate. [09:17] crimsun: just a meta discussion about the pros and cons of esd [09:17] ekimus, but esd shouldn't cause any problems with apps trying to use ALSA directly [09:17] i just want the ubuntu box shared folder to appear in my network places. [09:17] tried everything [09:17] Wilf: Is the "shared folder" hosted on the Ubuntu box, or not? [09:18] yes. [09:18] shared folder is /backups [09:18] Wilf: Let me dig up a URL for you, then. [09:18] on the root [09:18] ekimus: as I mentioned to topyli earlier, it's moot for Breezy. We've made dmixed ALSA the default with esd as a backup. [09:18] thankyou [09:18] ! [09:18] Wilf: Do they come in packets of five? [09:18] mae: i know very well how to disable this stuff. it's just that I'm not used to have so much preconfigured (not that it's a bad thing. I'm just used to distro's that require more manual config) [09:18] how do you use alsa sound ? most games complain about needing it [09:18] :p [09:19] ekimus: there are pros and cons to both [09:19] Wilf: You MUST install the samba server on the Ubuntu box. [09:19] You must then read http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/ . [09:19] it is installed. [09:19] ekimus, allright.. but like i said, as others can tell you, esd is configured in such a way that it does not interfere with apps accessing ALSA directly [09:19] crimsun: sounds great. but tell me one thing: Why couldn't you tell me 3 weeks ago when I set alsa up :) [09:19] or OSS for that matter [09:19] Wilf: Reading that URL should help you out. [09:19] konra`: "killall esd" on a prompt before you start the game often works [09:19] paulproteus|lapt, thank you so much! [09:19] nalioth: true, i just like alsa more [09:19] Madpilot, thank you (again) [09:20] does killall take su privs Madpilot ? [09:20] Wilf: Do contact me to tell me it works, so I know you're okay. :) [09:20] ekimus: you didn't happen to track breezy, did you? [09:20] i tried to get here while i was at work [09:20] but, stupid porxies! [09:20] proxies rather [09:20] (or proxys?) [09:20] ekimus: dmixed alsa has been enabled as the default for nearly four months. [09:21] :) === Nakkel [n=nakkel@vektori.com] has joined #ubuntu [09:21] crimsun: nope. stopped caring about configuring the desktop. that's why i went to ubuntu. configuring stuff is fine for corporate desktops or servers. but i really got sick of caring about it on my personal desktop [09:22] Wilf: Proxies. [09:22] konra`: not for esd. (use "esd" to restart it, btw) [09:22] ekimus: one thing you'll want to note is that any warty/hoary desktops that you dist-upgrade to breezy will need to have their (/etc/asound.conf [09:22] Wilf: What's your problem with the proxies? [09:22] |~/.asoundrc) moved out of the way [09:22] Wilf: You can get around proxy servers with something like GNU httptunnel. [09:22] Get *through* them, rather. [09:23] hmmm. [09:23] crimsun: i got my home on a remote svn repo and there's almost nothing i changed in the system settings. i guess i'll just commit my home grad a cd and wipe out the old install :) [09:23] grab === rob^ [n=rob@pdpc/supporter/student/rob-ubuntu] has joined #ubuntu [09:23] tried lots of things [09:23] i've never spammed, and I don't think this counts as spam, but I would like to advertise a little program that I work on the dev team for.

[09:24] nope. [09:25] crimsun: with the feature freeze and all, is someone working on upgrade notes? in a perfect world we wouldn't need such things of course :) [09:25] jtan325: you are the man! hope it works [09:26] topyli: yes. There will be one similar to the one for warty->hoary. Additionally, the default home page for firefox will be a user's guide inspired by ubuntuguide [09:26] Wilf: You should be able to use TOR through that proxy. === gsuveg [n=gsuveg@224-018.adsl.pool.ew.hu] has left #ubuntu ["Konversation] [09:26] TOR?

[09:27] Wilf: others dream of smaller mobile equipment :-) [09:27] thanks nalioth, let me know if you run into problems [09:28] Wilf: Tor would circumvent that.

[10:15] nalioth and/or aftertaf, if there's stuff you want to see added/changed about conky, make feature requests at https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=143975 [10:15] ubuntu-asker: yes. you could try to merge the .configs with diff (or just open 2 xterms and go thru the options in menuconfig and add the missing stuff to ubuntu === ubuntuuser56 [n=chatzill@81-179-74-132.dsl.pipex.com] has joined #ubuntu [10:15] jtan325: are you away?

[10:18] got my only ever dodgy emial through from it [10:18] thunderbird doesn't even have a "reply to list" [10:18] theyve obviously spent more time on firefix [10:18] Madpilot, i dont want to start a flamebait, but... i dont understand, why does you use opera web-browser? [10:18] as long as it's not IE, i don't mind.

[10:20] lool Madpilot [10:20] hehe === Virtuall is now known as Virtuall[BZA] [10:21] ubuntu-asker: yes. it can't handle mailing lists which is imho not a missing feature. it is a bug === Virtuall[BZA] is now known as Virtuall [10:21] ekimus, Madpilot, IMHO firefox is STILL on 1.x version, its quite "new", but with extensions and popularity, will be better than others [10:21] just googled IEView - it does do what I thought... drat. An "IE emulator" would actually be useful for design work... [10:22] Madpilot, good point... then again, for my website, if they're using IE, they are first redirected to a screen where they can choose to go the the IE complient text-only site (recommended), or brave the full-featured one (Probably buggy)... guess what most of them choose ;) === runge [n=runge@host-206-98.wetternet.net] has joined #ubuntu [10:22] does anyone here use gutenprint instead of gimp-print?

[01:16] ilba7r: On the system I have that has trouble with acpi sensor readings, I use lm-sensors. I don't know of another tool that does this. xsensors will bring in all the dependencies, and the sensors-detect program in lm-sensors will help to configure sensord, which outputs everything to syslog.

I saw your email to LUV... ?? [01:24] Chameleon22: My windows networking is a bit fuzzy, but I believe that all machines allow anonymous access to all resources, but then deny access to specific resources (which may be all of them). You are probably logging into the directory service successfully, and then being advised that you cannot browse the share. [01:24] thanks derFlo but not got kde installed .. [01:25] this was the easiest way for me, even if kde is not installed [01:25] it needs some libs, but also runs under gnome [01:25] ye , i want to disable login all together unless user is authenticated [01:25] twibbler: You could try gnome-bluetooth instead.

(I chose default settings when installing Ubuntu Hoary a few months ago) [02:53] urban legend #1 of Redmond Way [02:53] :) === stoeptegel [n=Martijn_@roxx.demon.nl] has joined #ubuntu [02:53] hehe [02:54] LaserLine: I've had success using that: it's pretty stable for a normal number of files in a normal number of directories with a normal amount of file turnover (for my values of normal). I only use ext2 for /boot because I'm too conservative to trust journaling for my kernels. [02:54] hi all [02:54] what media player would you all recommend?...shoud i just use totem, or is there somthing else better [02:54] gnome-rhythm-box (Music Player) seems to be ok for basic use [02:54] And how do you select that ? while installation ? [02:55] It was automatic for me - check in Applications->Sound->Music Player ? === derreck [n=derreck@69-162-63-128.stcgpa.adelphia.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:56] LaserLine: At the time of filesystem creation, which is usually at the time of installation, unless you have extra disks and move your installation around (one should really use lvm or something if this is required). [02:56] Ok... I find my FS really UNSTABLE... I get a lot of INODE Errors while booting up the system. [02:57] persia, I don't think I have a Bad HARDDRIVE, because, while running fsck -c, it dosn't return erros... [02:57] LaserLine: Do you shut down smoothly every time? That really shouldn't happen. [02:57] persia, yes.. I do that. [02:57] persia, I'm kinda sick of fixing it up everytime... === bluesceada [n=itsjustm@unaffiliated/bluesceada] has joined #ubuntu [02:58] persia, should i enable PnP-OS in the Bios or disable it, coz i think I that's what caused the problem now. === DewUbuntu [n=dewdude@pool-71-114-86-76.washdc.dsl-w.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:59] LaserLine: On your BIOS question: an old HOWTO (http://www.linux.com/howtos/Plug-and-Play-HOWTO-3.shtml) says it doesn't matter, but I'm not really sure.

[03:20] LaserLine: Ahhh... I understand. Sorry. Do you have a livecd? You may be able to get the data with this. I'll have to go soon: perhaps another can assist later if it will take you a while. [03:20] I have the LIVE CD - or should i boot the 386 kernel... === Riddell [i=jr@kde/jriddell] has joined #ubuntu [03:21] LaserLine: It sounds like your filesystem is corrupt, even if there is no hardware error.

[03:22] LaserLine: If the 386 kernel boots cleanly, and the 686 kernel does not, that may be the case, but perhaps we can find something in a file that will prevent the corruption in the future.

(systemwide not per user) [03:25] Shacham: If you don't find a command line interface to one of the more advanced tools, you can always manually configure the MIME and SMTP headers, and do something with `sendmail -bs. This might require a little scripting to be repeatable... [03:25] persia, this is kind of wierd, because i had a similar problem last week....

[03:25] yup, thanks :) [03:26] LaserLine: The problem happens loading a kernel off the livecd?

Try mounting your /var filesystem from your installation, and then put the appropriate portions of log/syslog (with the recent boot crashes & fsck failures) in http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl. I'll take a look directly. [03:31] hi [03:31] LaserLine: Do you know which partition is used for /var? [03:32] persia, umm... /dev/hda1 [03:32] any developper here ?

[03:35] AzCowboy: what about "dmesg" [03:35] It's a Sony laptop [03:35] whats a metasyntactic variable? you put what u want?? [03:36] LaserLine: I only want the last bit: your last boot. If you load it in a viewer, you should be able to jump to the bottom, and scroll up until you find the fsck errors. [03:36] AzCowboy: looks like it's nearly the same hardware i have (acer travelmate 800). what type is the wlan card? [03:36] AzCowboy: the atheros? [03:36] persia - i'm in the bottom...

Could you post the /etc/fstab on /dev/hda1? This might help. [03:41] persia, at pastebin or here?

At first ubuntu found the card, said it was wireless and so on, but I wasn't able to use it.

The error message indicates that the drive reported that it was not ready when trying to find something.

Moreover, the error you reported (SeekNotReady) was for /dev/hdb1 - the livecd itself, rather than your hard drive.

It's almost as if there's another ftp server working, but PureAdmin is monitoring the activity. [03:56] persia should i run the fsck command from X or TTY 2 ?

The problem can be seen at: http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/1769 [04:47] plain simple: no sound [04:47] nerdy2: I don't have any network cables for it, so i can't test it yet, I wasn't going to buy the cable until I knew it worked [04:48] so is there another way of testing? [04:48] CarlFK so tools similar that can fix a HD ? [04:48] arachnion: step one - open alsamixer and check for muted channels [04:48] arachnion: hit "m" to toggle mute/unmute [04:49] can I run the config thingy from the installer without installing the complete system? === trygvebw [n=trygvebw@216-25-153.5002.adsl.tele2.no] has left #ubuntu ["b00t-b00t"] [04:49] rbirkby, looks like a broken package or the permissions on the package are wrong [04:49] nerdy2: is http://libranet.com/support/db/2.8/0305 that what I'm looking for? [04:50] X3N, I tried deleting the package and redownloading, I tried looking at the /usr install location - doesn't exist. So I touched a file to make it exist. It all still fails [04:50] how can I temporarily keep USB devices from mounting? [04:50] magical_trevsky: well you should be running a much more up to date kernel than that [04:50] stop /etc/init.d/hotplug ? [04:50] all of them should be unmuted thoreauputic ?

I'm kinda confused [04:54] arachnion: hmm... has sound worked before on this install ? [04:55] it's brand new, no [04:55] magical_trevsky: well you'll have to set it up with ip addresses or whatever [04:55] because in 'networking' only the modem is listed, not the nic [04:55] arachnion: ah.... well I'm no sound guru: if crimsun is around he might be able to help [04:55] thoreauputic: I just stopped the service again and the system is still running a ftp server service... [04:56] crimsun, can you help me out, please? [04:56] magical_trevsky: yes, the driver should work [although if the install didn't recognize it, the driver's probably not loaded by default, so either modprobe every time, or set that up] [04:56] thoreaputic: does it have an apt-get thing?

Dont want to start a holy war here, just looking for options [05:18] D2DChat: or generally ^A ? for help :) [05:18] bur[n] er if i man screen it gives me more options than i can read on one screen [05:18] (^A meaning ctrl-a) [05:19] magical_trevsky: ok, http://pastebin.com/351035 [05:19] hey guys i downloaded the nividia driver IA32.....and i run the install script sh NVIDIA....etc... and it cant find the kernel stuff and fails to install [05:19] ^A c, create new screen, ^A N, next, ^A P, Previous [05:19] factotum: you're better off having a seperate normal audio/mp3 player and video player [05:19] thats what i was kind of thinking [05:19] magical_trevsky: i don't like the vortex_probe1 failes line [05:19] chimo: that's not how you should install the nvidia driver on ubuntu, take a look in the wiki for the binary nvidia howto [05:19] magical_trevsky: you might wanna google that [05:19] D2DChat, that's why you have pgup and pgdn keys === toxicle [n=x80@60.48.179.42] has joined #ubuntu [05:19] hello [05:20] bur[n] er: nice quick tute...thanks :) [05:20] factotum, xmms works for me [05:20] i just installed ubuntu on my desktop using "server" to boot [05:20] factotum, personally... i use totem for video and rhythmbox for audio [05:20] brenner, :) [05:20] it tells me the first part is complete and then it will reboot [05:20] when it did .. i could only login with a normal user [05:20] how do i continue? [05:20] jo_e: xmms is lame ;-) [05:21] oh man, holy war of media players is upon us [05:21] xmms is not a media player, really. [05:21] apokryphos, why is that? [05:21] nerdy2: thanks for your help [05:21] bur[n] er: how do you close a screen? [05:21] xmms is gtk1 and just unpretty... fast, but unpretty [05:21] brenner, ^A k [05:21] jo_e: why is it lame/ Because it's severely lacking in features, non-compliant for everything, most undeveloped app ever :P, and aesthetically unpleasing. :) [05:22] ta [05:22] brenner, screen -dR to reconnect to a lost screen [05:22] I want to see wmv files in my firefox, how can I fix that? [05:22] i guess im a fan of xmms because i used winamp for so many years [05:22] factotum, try beep-media-player? [05:22] does xorg support 32 bit color depth? [05:22] bur[n] er: how do they get lost? :-/ [05:22] winamp is the one application i miss in my linux adventure [05:22] elTigre: yes. [05:22] factotum: bad reason to keep using it; expand your horizons :) [05:22] because debconf only has 24 and under windows my laptop does not support 24 [05:22] yeah i have it open right now actually, trying to tell the difference between it and xmms [05:22] brenner, if you close the xterm that's running screen [05:22] apokryphos, i can deal with ugly. as factotum said, I used winamp for ages. non-compliant in what ways? what features is it missing? [05:23] Winamp is the one app I do NOT miss, frankly; there are far superior apps on UNIX. [05:23] brenner, or if you wanna connect to your irssi session that's running via ssh ;) [05:23] bur[n] er: ah, ok [05:23] I'm giving up -. [05:23] apokryphos, one that burns, rips, has a media library that auto updates, tag editing? [05:23] can anyone tell me how to continue to the second part of installation ? I used "server" when booting the install [05:23] jo_e: if you don't think it's missing features, then you palpably haven't tried out amaroK or JuK. :) === magical_trevsky [i=magical_@host213-122-181-156.in-addr.btopenworld.com] has left #ubuntu [] [05:23] sorry, didnt mean to start a debate here [05:23] elTigre: limitation of laptop? maybe?

For streams on the Internet? I'm talking about audio/mp3 players [05:24] I dont care about the limitation [05:24] not that I wanted to watch porn from the media library... [05:24] the installation cds autodetect everything and it worked perfectly [05:24] apokryphos, me too... media library so that I can quickly pick a certain artist similar to rb/itunes/winamp [05:24] but now I don't have the slightest clue [05:24] jo_e: a zillion different features. See http://amarok.kde.org/content/view/51/1/ for example [05:25] bur[n] er: no, I wasn't being sarcastic :). I'm saying the media library with streams etc is useless to me. [05:25] can I reinstall ubuntu without loosing my files? [05:25] who said anything about streams? ;) [05:25] rhythbox is decent, just with it was a bit more compact [05:25] bur[n] er: winamp could perhaps be good with the zillion possible plugins out there, but as the program itself stands, I thought amaroK would be ten times better for what it does [05:25] elTigre, backup your /home [05:25] hmm [05:26] amaroK has pod support, too :D === Whistler [n=admin@85.206.161.9] has joined #ubuntu [05:26] ooh... full lyrics download... useless ;). i'm willing to try; does it work with esd?

On Ubuntu using "vga=792" works like a charm. Not so on the server-centric Trustix. Well, perhaps I'll end up hardening Ubuntu to run on my server as well.

[06:07] let me try once more [06:07] !xorg [06:07] LasseL: do you get dumped to an overflow channel ?

[06:32] angelus__1969: do you have /etc/resolv.conf there? anything in there? [06:32] Repeating myself...: Another question. This time it's actually Ubuntu-related. I've learned on the mailing-list that there is a problem with RAID arrays in 5.04. And that there are workarounds that some have had luck with. So.... How do I /check/ if my RAID-1 array does as it should. I mean, it could be half the mirror working, while the other half were blank. [06:32] angelus__1969: usually, resolv.conf is the key for surfing the net [06:33] icemanv9: there are two lines 'search angelus.lan' and 'nameserver 192.168.1.1' [06:33] the 1.1 is the router === oceandead [n=oceandea@pcp0010121770pcs.crosky01.pa.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [06:33] LaserLine, You realise you must click on the small hard-disk shaped icons in the table?

[06:34] hyphenated: Well, it loads, you can connect but the other person can't hear me despite the mic being set up alright & it keeps crashing (usually on the second call). [06:34] Bergcube, Okay, i just realized that :D - when i d/l the EXE, does it have the ISO inside or what? [06:35] angelus__1969: aha. you may want to fill out DNS .. it should work as soon as you fire up the laptop :) === barosl [n=barosl@222.99.186.46] has joined #ubuntu [06:35] LaserLine, Yeah. The EXE is simply a self-extracting zip archieve. So unless you have a windows box to extract it on you shjould go for the zip edition. [06:35] at the router, of course [06:36] icemanv9: how do you mean? === Ubuntu-Pk [n=Administ@202.125.143.152] has left #ubuntu [] [06:36] shjould shjould be withouth the "j"......

[06:39] LaserLine, When you boot there's a menu item for harddisk tools. There's one or two tools for each major brand of harddisks. You _MUST_ know the make of your HD before starting a tool. Otherwise it might do damage. I don't remember if toshibe dos indeed make their own drives. I've gotten the Seagate tool to work on other disks as well, as long as there's a seagate disk present next to it. [06:39] hmmmm [06:39] LaserLine, Sorry for the typos. Wasn't taking my time... [06:40] Bergcube: this is irc...we don't care about perfection. :) [06:40] angelus__1969: no idea :/ [06:40] icemanv9: i'm stumped as well, and it's way to hot here to sit after a bunch of computer anyway :) [06:41] brenner, I know. But still I try to write well. Clear "speech" reflects a clear mind. I think. [06:41] icemanv9: thank you for your help [06:42] Bergcube: then i'm in trouble. :D [06:42] angelus__1969: np. hope you find something to get it working as it should be. :) [06:42] Bergcube, I didn't see any Toshiba software, it's a Fujitsu Siemens laptop... with a Toshiba MK-1016GAP ? [06:42] LaserLine, in the boot-up process the BIOS should actually TELL you the make of the HD. If not, enter the BIOS setup utility and see what it says. [06:42] icemanv9: yes, I will try another time in this channel, or else I will see if there is a mailinglist where I can ask [06:42] brenner, as long as you REALISE it, there's still hope. And room for improvement! [06:42] Bergcube, It says Toshiba MK-1016GAP [06:42] Does anyone use rdesktop under ubuntu? I'm having problems with it reversing letters on my screen.

If you simply wants it to be clean before a new install, use KillDisk and wipe it. If you REALLY wish to low-level format it (to check for errors and bad sectors on the physical layer) try the IBM or Seagate tool. === oceandead [n=oceandea@pcp0010121770pcs.crosky01.pa.comcast.net] has left #ubuntu ["Off] === MagmaRules [n=magmarul@85.138.160.148] has joined #ubuntu [06:47] hello [06:47] ompaul, for not thinking I put on Pink Floyd, set the volum knob to 11 and enter nirvana instantly.

[06:50] ompaul, We can go on! [06:50] Bergcube, lets leave it cos there are others that are out there [06:51] LaserLine, Then try the IBM or Seagate tool. Or ask Toshiba for something similar. Or even better: Buy a new harddisk. When it begins failing like that, chances are it'll die on you within weeks. [06:51] Bergcube, What does this error mean ? [06:51] LaserLine, that error is from the smart hdd and its eather close to dieing or is dead allready [06:51] ompaul, One of these days, we'll teach them! [06:51] hyphenated: Are you using Kubuntu or Ubuntu (Gnome or KDE)? [06:51] Bergcube, but everything was good yesterday... [06:52] LaserLine, hdds fail all the time [06:52] LaserLine, Sorry, I cannot grok that. I am not THAT experienced in Linux. Yet. What I've said so far is based on general experience with PC hardware. [06:52] Bergcube, Toshiba says MTBF is 300,000 hours.. that means: 24*365=8760, that means 34 years ! === AzCowboy [n=AzCowboy@63.225.115.21] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] [06:54] LaserLine, to be sure you'll need to run a test-suite on the disk that writes and reads and rewrites and so on to see if bits go missing. But if it was good only yesterday, I would say the fault might well be logical. [06:54] Bergcube, I'm kinda sad now, already paid 122$ for Ram, and 155$ for fixing the battert........ [06:54] BollocksMacenzie: I installed kubuntu-desktop meta-package after a stock ubuntu install === beyond is now known as beyond-lunch [06:55] Bergcube, what does a logical fault mean? [06:55] hyphenated: I heard that was the only way to get skype to work! [06:55] LaserLine, I know how you feel! Drop by, and I'll give you a 5-gig laptop disk. :-S Logical fault: Error in the files, in the way they look to the OS. As opposed to physical fault, a real damage to the magnetic surface. [06:56] BollocksMacenzie: hmm, I must have been lucky then. It worked fine for me after I installed the .deb [06:56] (it's annoying that they mixed up 'description' and 'summary' in their packaging though [06:56] Do you guys think it's ok to leave an external USB drive going? [06:56] zenrox, heyaz [06:56] :) [06:57] hyphenated: I'd heard that you needed kde or kubuntu installed to use skype. Though I wondered how much of kubuntu you need to install to make it work?

[06:58] Bergcube But thanks anyway ! - By the way, What is the name of that Suite ? [06:58] LaserLine, Yeah, I guess so! But IF the disk is really failing, getting a new one is the best solution. And you'll have to do it sooner or later. If not, a low-level format will fix everything for you. === davro [n=davro@cpc4-ches2-3-0-cust110.lutn.cable.ntl.com] has left #ubuntu ["Stay] [06:59] BollocksMacenzie: the only kde-like library it seems to use is qt, which shouldn't be too hard to install.

That is NOT the same as low-level formatting. But if that didn't give any errors chances are that the magnetic surface is good and that your disk is now ready for a fresh install. And you won't need to run Killdisk as well, your disk is already wiped then.

[07:10] yeah, the package name is shelter manager [07:10] LaserLine, After a wipe the disk should be completely and utterly blank. If the software is unable to zero it, the disk is failing BADLY. But perhaps it's a good last resort to try Killdisk as well then.

[07:23] freak`da: what if you use the sudo command in a normal terminal? [07:23] LaserLine, I suggest you start by wiping the disk with Killdisk.

But try wiping it first. Besides: The UBCD is very logical and tidy set up. So most of it is intuitive. Use the website to read about the various utilities. :-) [07:24] um, sorry, what's going on? [07:25] Bergcube, The Maxtor one said in passed the 90 seconds test... [07:25] LaserLine, Usually about an hour, or less. Depends on disk speed, and size. [07:25] freak`da: try using the console on tty1 [07:26] LaserLine, that is good. Then the onboard disk controller is communicating. Try wiping it then.

I had problems with WD, the only company I buy is Maxtor. have a 80GB in my desktop, and a OneTouch USB externel drive(160GB) === Bergcube throws a defunct power-supply at Gnonthgol. [07:32] LaserLine, I tend to agree. I've never had problems with Maxtor. [07:32] au [07:33] Heh heh heh heh! [07:33] Bergcube: why did you do that === Gnonthgol throws the power suply back [07:34] Bergcube, after I had problems with WD (it was for backup) and it blew after 2 months, I called a Data recovery company, to ask how much it'll cost me to fix it, they wantet 500$ for recovering data.... [07:34] then I asked what HD comes least to the lab, they said Maxtor, Seagate, Hitachi. They also said Samsung were kinda good, but it's a bit*h to recover data from... [07:34] Gnonthgol, I knew you were testing power-supplys, so I thought I'd let you have another one. (And perhaps I'm a little evil?!) [07:36] LaserLine, ONLY 500$ ??? Dirt cheap. Seen what level the prices at www.ibas.com are at? (But they even recover data from PCs that have been inside buildings that burnt to the ground...)

[07:44] rodietze, try using rhythmbox instead of xmms [07:45] neoliminal, You could consider replacing the router with a Smootwall 2.0 free edition firewall. And forget about the attack. :-) [07:45] and people are having a hard time getting to my website now, so I have to do something. [07:45] rodietze, that will be in applications -> sound and video -> Music Player [07:45] konra` is that the best choice than xmms? === EasilyOdd [n=EO@167.7.130.21] has joined #ubuntu [07:46] rodietze, yes [07:46] "Speadbumps", a bump in the road to prevent people form driving to fast, but may have the opposite efect on some cars with air suspension. === _bt [n=bt@monkeytronics.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu [07:46] konra` yeah I know where it is, but wait... why can't I solve this problem?

[07:46] <_bt> how can i sort this? [07:47] konra` oh ok :) thanks [07:47] rodietze, welcome [07:47] :p [07:47] adjacent, Yes. That is true. Short-sighted of me. I stand corrected.

[10:45] topyli: yeah - useful link - I had a look a while ago :) [10:45] my ubuntu client finally gets an fixed dhcp address and hostname from my centos dhcp server box [10:45] but now the client starts to moan about not being able to very the name against the dns [10:45] any ideas? [10:46] topyli: The preview there does indeed have some nice looking stuff. Too simplistic for my liking, but it's nice. ;) [10:46] apokryphos: spatial nautilus is not really a file manager. it's just something you use to manage the desktop. you use browser mode for browsing [10:46] apokryphos: nautlus isn't true browser a la konqueror though [10:46] *nautilus [10:46] hi all [10:46] topyli: browser = web-browser, right? [10:46] topyli: what is the gnome file manager, then? [10:47] apokryphos: browser = file browser like windows explorer [10:47] apokryphos: no - file browser, although nautilus can load http:// [10:47] ahh === wrtpeeps [n=andy@unaffiliated/wrtpeeps] has joined #ubuntu [10:47] i'm currently using one of my friend's pc (with hoary on it) via vnc ... and i need to get her printer to work ... but lsusb doesn't output anything at all ! [10:47] anyone know the package name for tcl headers? [10:47] apokryphos: right click any folder and choose "browse" [10:47] thought for a second it had some secret web-browser features [10:47] apart from tcllib [10:47] nautilus manages files, spatial or not, so it is a "file manager" [10:47] is it any analogue of playsound? [10:47] topyli: what is the gnome file manager, though, then? [10:47] mjr: true enough [10:48] apokryphos, nautilus --browser [10:48] I should put the hostname in the /etc/hosts file, but this goes beside the point of having the hostname given by the dhcp though [10:48] apokryphos: nautilus of course [10:48] ideas anyone ? === vampyregeek [n=vampyreg@cpe-67-9-109-176.satx.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [10:48] apokryphos: it has two different modes of operation: spatial, browser [10:48] I don't understand why nautilus isn't launched in browser mode by default === vampyregeek [n=vampyreg@cpe-67-9-109-176.satx.res.rr.com] has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"] [10:49] apokryphos: actually scratch that - it doesn't handle http:// links [10:49] apokryphos: I thought it did, but it only does ftp:// and ssh:// afaics [10:49] apokryphos, http://appelsinjuice.org/default.png shows the default nautilus mode in ubuntu [10:49] topyli: "nautlius is not really a file manager"... === theD3viL [n=geek@BSN-77-90-27.dsl.siol.net] has joined #ubuntu [10:50] yes, so I see === apokryphos has vague recollections [10:50] eruin, no, it doesn't [10:50] LasseL: there was a huge flamewar about it when 2.6 came out [10:50] !playsound [10:50] ttyS0: Did you get hit by a windmill? [10:50] Is now smart to using breezy ???? === nicholaspaul [n=nickpaul@d198-53-138-13.abhsia.telus.net] has joined #ubuntu [10:50] mjr, oh? this is what it looked after installing breezy [10:50] apokryphos: look at my screenshot and see how i have some important folders on my desktop. they always open in spatial mode. on the top panel i have a launcher icon for a file manager, which is in browser mode: http://siltala.net/comp/Hoary-desktop.jpg [10:50] any ideas how to get rid of this error message? [10:51] theD3viL: more accurately, you need to be smart to use breezy atm ;-) [10:51] smartr than me, anyway ;D [10:51] breezy preview is slated for seven days or so [10:51] it should be pretty safe going [10:51] apokryphos: "not really a file manager" is incorrect, sorry. not _only_ a file manager is better [10:51] is that a solid distro? eruin [10:51] topyli: ok, I see, sure. [10:52] nicholaspaul, I have no issues with it [10:52] topyli: I've gotta rush of to work (boss just phoned, wondering why I didn't turn up; yikes). I'll speak to you later abuot this if poss [10:52] nicholaspaul, you could ofcourse be less fortunate [10:52] nautilus seems to cover the same tasks as windows explorer, drawing the desktop, browsing files and handling file associations === apokryphos -> out [10:52] apokryphos: sure, i'f i'm around [10:52] Au revoir [10:52] da svidanija [10:52] LasseL, doesnt explorer also handle the menu ? [10:52] eruin: ok . LOL I get it! The last time i Breezied I got a nasty shock and had to go back to Hoary. The forum was full of "HELP" messages!!! [10:53] nicholaspaul, was that in june by any chance? ;) [10:53] eruin, right [10:53] eruin: yup!! [10:53] heh, apokryphos was so busy on IRC he forgot to go to work :) [10:53] is there any way to update the /etc/host file after I get the info from the dhcp server? [10:53] nicholaspaul, xorg is unbroken now [10:53] so it seems [10:53] that's dedication thoreauputic === X7C [n=xtc@201.214.24.63] has joined #ubuntu [10:54] tristanmike: indeed :) [10:54] eruin: phew! so with a pIII and a good whack of ram i should be ok? or is that a silly unanswerable q: ? [10:54] eruin: phew! So i 'should' be ok ? [10:54] !lilo:*! Hints: You can sign onto NickServ by just using your NickServ password as a server password when you connect. [10:54] thoreauputic: happens all the time =) [10:54] (oo lag) [10:54] tristanmike: he had his priorities straight! [10:54] how does ./configure work? do things "install" themselves somewhere? [10:54] nicholaspaul, unanswerable, but I suppose you should be ok [10:54] thoreauputic, damn right! =) === Bubblefly [n=Nanami@brndmb02dc1-206-72.dynamic.mts.net] has joined #ubuntu === benkong2 [n=benjamin@cpe-065-190-203-070.nc.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [10:54] lol eruin. I understand. [10:55] ping [10:55] ding [10:55] thoreauputic, kinda like the relationship between Barney and Moe's [10:55] vices: there are two other steps - make, and "make install" [10:55] nicholaspaul, I've been running breezy since they announced it ;) [10:55] eruin> Even since June? [10:55] thoreaputic: ahh, i've heard of these. what are the typical arguments? [10:55] nicholaspaul, yes, bumpy ride around then though [10:56] I get an error on boot skge cannot map device registers and eth0 at line 2 can't be mapped reliably. also my nic does not work. What's wrong? === LokeDK [i=loke@216-55-137-12.dedicated.abac.net] has joined #ubuntu [10:56] :) [10:56] yea i bet eruin. I'm not hardcore enough to weather those storms.... [10:56] breezy btw [10:56] vices: "make" does the compiling, make install puts things where they are meant to be in the file system [10:56] i'm too gui [10:56] nicholaspaul, and I lived a close to a month without my lovely keyboard layout [10:56] so what does ./configure do? [10:56] euin: a custom kbd layout? [10:56] thoreauputic: :) [10:56] nicholaspaul, and spilled coffee on it (a laptop keyboard) when xorg was finally unborked ;-) [10:57] vices: in simple terms, checks that you have the needed bits befoe you compile [10:57] thoreauputic: how do I tell it where to install? === moZer [n=peter@ua2-86.cust.blixtvik.net] has joined #ubuntu [10:57] vices: normally you don't - by default it uually installs in /usr/local/ === lucaz [n=Lucas@201.10.11.37] has joined #ubuntu [10:58] anyone know of ubuntu packages of deer park? [10:58] sometimes they come with an installer, like Teamspeak, am I right? [10:58] eruin: yikies! any caffeine make it to a motherboard? [10:58] please guys, at least could you tell me where i could get help for my prib ? cuase he's not gonna keep ubuntu if her printer doesn't work [10:58] vices: you can type ./configure --help to see altrnatives [10:58] Will I be able to set up dual boot if I have the second HDD with Ubuntu connected to the secondary slave IDE channel? [10:58] Or does it need to be master? [10:58] s/ uually/ usuallly [10:58] elvirolo - are you reg. on the forum? [10:58] thoreauputic: thanks [10:58] I'm looking for a comic book reader like cdisplay, do you know one? [10:59] vices: a better way is to install "checkinstall" and use that insted of make install [10:59] WolfPac_Ite: yes it will be fine for dual boot [10:59] wolf: it can be, just make sure your grub.conf points in the right direction [10:59] nicholaspaul: yes, and i have sent a post there, but i got no helpful answer [10:59] Thank you. [10:59] vices: it makes a .deb for you and installs it [10:59] lucaz: "comix.sourceforge.net" === mumbles goes madd with apache and ftp under ubuntu [10:59] on a deb pkg, cos I found a comical tarball... [11:00] thoreauputic: what's the .deb file do? and why is it better than make install? Do you mean better as in more basic? [11:00] lucaz: if you search sourceforge for "comic book archive", you'll get a lot of choices [11:00] anyone knowledge on dhcp in ubuntu?????? [11:00] it's getting on my nerves :) [11:00] lucaz: really? you found on in the repos? [11:00] nalioth_wrkn, I'll take a look.. [11:00] vices: no better as in easier to manage for uninstalling etfc [11:00] *etc [11:00] elvirolo. yea, i know how that feels. sorry, i'm not very technical with linux, i tend to search and hunt and give up for a while :S [11:01] elvirolo: sometimes there's no-one to answer, it's just the nature of irc [11:01] angelus__1969 its better to state your problem [11:01] vices: if you use checkinstall apt/synaptic will kow about the deb [11:01] nouse: I did already :) [11:01] nalioth_wrkn, I didnt ... [11:01] elvirolo: so, what sort of printer are you talking about [11:01] lucaz: me neither, but was hopin [11:02] lucaz: anyway, sourceforge has all kinds of cbr, cbz and cbt viewers [11:02] nicholaspaul: that's all right, thanks anyway :) [11:02] thoreauputic: oh neat, so if I use make install it's up to me to remember that it's on my system? [11:02] I finally got my ubuntu client to get the fixed addres and hostname from the dhcp server (thanks to the dhcpcd package :) ) [11:02] but now, when I logon to the gui, it start to moan that the hostname can't be verified against the dns [11:02] elvirolo: anytime. Good luck. [11:02] vices: basically yes - and uninstalling might be more difficult [11:02] topyli: it's an epson stylus C20UX (should be detected fine according to linuxprinting.org) [11:02] and that I should fill in the name in /etc/hosts [11:02] and that defeats the point a little [11:02] nalioth_wrkn, yeah, but I didnt want to install by a tar ball... === nalioth_wrkn hasta go to work now [11:03] vices: checkinstall is a good habit - you can install it with synaptic [11:03] elvirolo: is it a good old parallel port printer or an usb one? [11:03] thoreauputic: checkinstall didn't run [11:03] lucaz: installing from source is not that diffecult, and allows you (in some cases) to custom make your program [11:03] !info checkinstall [11:03] checkinstall: (installation tracker), section universe/admin, is optional. Version: 1.5.3-3 (hoary), Packaged size: 34 kB, Installed size: 132 kB === topyli looks [11:03] vices: you have to install it :) [11:03] topyli: usb i'm afraid [11:03] lucaz: none of the comic viewers are hard to compile at all [11:03] thoreauputic: oh haha === [t0rc] [i=[t0rc] @AC9D891F.ipt.aol.com] has joined #ubuntu [11:04] nalioth_wrkn, I know, but what about the dependencies? [11:04] lucaz: use "checkinstall" instead of "make install" and you'll be doin yourself a favor [11:04] vices: you need the universe repo for it as you see above === maximaus [n=max@adsl-156-0-188.bna.bellsouth.net] has left #ubuntu [] [11:04] nalioth_wrkn, ok.. [11:04] lucaz: comix.sourceforge.net depends on gtk, pygtk and some other simple thing (that i think is already on your box) [11:04] angelus__1969 unless you want to set up internal DNS then add your hostname to your hosts file [11:05] g2g [11:05] l3r [11:05] nouse: yes, I know :) [11:05] nouse: but that defeats the way I'm getting the hostname [11:05] nouse: it's given by the dhcp server [11:05] nalioth_wrkn, why I cant extract the rar comic file? === reiki [n=chatzill@24-52-225-13.kntnny.adelphia.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:05] angelus__1969 so set one on the machine itself [11:06] vices: note that checkinstall and "make install" both need sudo [11:06] lucaz, you need unrar ? (unrar-nonfree) [11:06] vices: the other steps don't [11:06] nouse: yes, that is also possible, but I want to have the config on every laptop who uses this card [11:06] elvirolo: yes, linuxprinting.org says it shoud work "perfectly". it might be a usb problem too. do you have other usb devices? [11:06] LasseL, I got unrar.

[11:07] vices: the checkinstall will just go to defaults if you hit enter a couple of times [11:07] thoreauputic: i want to click on your name and have it appear in the text input bar [11:07] no, and lsusb doesn't output anything [11:07] there has to be a way, or else there would be no reason to send a hostname with the dhcp offering [11:07] vices: just do thor [11:08] vices: what if you do "th" and then hit TAB ? === mumbles bangs head against wall [11:08] angelus__1969 set up internal DNS [11:08] repetadley [11:08] elvirolo: then the problem is with hotplug or the usb subsystem, not the print system [11:08] lucaz@XP1600:~/Desktop$ unrar batmanresc.cbr [11:08] unrar 0.0.1 Copyright (c) 2004 Ben Asselstine [11:08] Extracting from /home/lucaz/Desktop/batmanresc.cbr [11:08] Extracting 011.jpg Failed [11:08] thoreauputic, thanks :) [11:08] elvirolo: i can't help much, sorry :( [11:08] nouse: can I make this dns dynamic??
